Chapter 171: Translation Genius
“Qiao Xi! You cheated! Where did you get the question?”
There was complete silence.
The judges’ expressions were ugly. Since Fan Wenyuan was raising his doubts, they had to pay attention to him.
But with Qiao Xi’s standard, even if she did copy, who could she have copied from?
There was a moment of silence. Fan Wenyuan roared crazily, “She stole the question! She must have cheated. I’ve been studying translation for decades. How could I be surpa.s.sed by a woman in her 20s?! This is absolutely impossible! Qiao Xi! Hurry up and admit it—”
“I can prove that Miss Qiao Xi didn’t cheat! Moreover, she doesn’t need to cheat!”
At this moment, a magnetic voice was heard.
Someone shouted in surprise, “Mr. Nick from the International Translation Organization is here!”
Mr. Nick was here!
Moreover, he was even helping Qiao Xi clear her name.
Fan Wenyuan’s expression was as gloomy as ink. On what basis should Mr. Nick help Qiao Xi? She must have used some sort of method!
He was exasperated. “Mr. Nick, you must not know that Qiao Xi came from the countryside. She has never learned English at all. How could she possibly know how to translate? If she didn’t cheat, what other explanation could there be?”
Nick glanced at him indifferently and snorted. “Can’t a country b.u.mpkin learn to translate? How can a person like you be a master translator?”
Then, he announced loudly to the crowd, “I can prove that Miss Qiao Xi didn’t cheat.”
The moment he finished speaking, a video of the translation compet.i.tion appeared on the big screen.
Nick waved his hand and the video started playing. A very young girl appeared on the screen. Her face was very similar to Qiao Xi’s.
Then, other videos were played. The girl gradually lost her immaturity and became more and more stunning. Her eyes were calm and without ripples.
Qiao Xi!
Unexpectedly, she had already partic.i.p.ated in several translation compet.i.tions. At the end of each video played, she was seen standing on the podium and calmly holding the trophy.
Such a young girl had won every compet.i.tion.
Earlier, everyone was still shocked by the poetry that Qiao Xi had translated, but now, they were completely dumbstruck.
Fan Wenyuan didn’t even have the qualifications to partic.i.p.ate in the international compet.i.tion, while Qiao Xi was invited to be a judge several times but she always refused.
Mr. Nick’s face was serious. “Everyone has finished watching it, right? Miss Qiao has won the translation compet.i.tion championship several times. Why should she cheat? Such a question is not difficult for her at all, let alone Fan Wenyuan’s questions!”
In other words, Fan Wenyuan simply didn’t have the qualifications to set questions for Qiao Xi!
What a joke!
Fan Wenyuan’s mind went blank.
At this moment, Qiao Rou’s face was gloomy as she stared fixedly at Qiao Xi on the stage.
Qiao Xi… How could Qiao Xi be that genius translator?
There must be a mistake!
She should be more outstanding than Qiao Xi in everything. How could she lose to Qiao Xi in terms of translation…
Qiao Xi’s expression was calm and composed.
She looked at Fan Wenyuan coldly, only to see his body trembling violently. He almost lost his balance.
“The champion of the translation compet.i.tion? Impossible! The Qiao family said that she’s a country b.u.mpkin and has never learned English. Impossible!”
Fan Wenyuan knew that he had completely lost. He had bet his entire life.
He turned around and fled in a panic, not daring to look at anyone’s expression.
“Stop! Mr. Fan, are you leaving just like that?”
Nick ordered his subordinates to stop Fan Wenyuan. He reprimanded loudly, “Someone did cheat in today’s compet.i.tion, but it wasn’t Miss Qiao Xi. It was you!”
At this moment, a video played on the screen. A sneaky person had entered the archives of the translation compet.i.tion.
Fan Wenyuan’s eyes widened.
Everyone gasped.
The person in the video was Fan Wenyuan.
He entered the archives room when no one was paying attention. He found the question for the compet.i.tion and left in a hurry.
However, he did not expect the surveillance cameras to capture everything.
“So he was the one who cheated! But he actually turned around and accused Qiao Xi of cheating!”
“Fan Wenyuan is still putting on airs, saying that he is a master translator. But he’s actually just a selfish and jealous old fellow!”
“Fan Wenyuan stole the question in advance and only got 7.9 points, but Qiao Xi got 10 points. This is enough to show the difference in strength between the two!”
“What right does a sc.u.m like Fan Wenyuan have to partic.i.p.ate in the translation compet.i.tion? Get lost!”
Fan Wenyuan felt his ears buzz. The surrounding curses and ridicule were about to drown him. He looked fiercely at Qiao Xi.
Then, his eyes rolled behind their sockets and he fell to the ground.
Everyone quickly moved away. No one came forward to help him. In the end, the medical staff carried him out. The compet.i.tion continued.
Fan Wenyuan had cheated in the international compet.i.tion. Perhaps he had cheated in previous compet.i.tions as well. That was how he had obtained such good results. That was how he became a famous translator.
